 Today I have the honor of posting Michelle Clay's two books, Bitter Black Kiss, and Of a Darker Nature. Having read both novels, I can say with confidence that if you like shape-shifting, you will enjoy the read. Bitter Black Kiss by Michelle Clay Purchase e-Book Purchase Print Genre: Paranormal ISBN: 978-1-937254-23-0 E-ISBN: 978-1-937254-24-7 Length: Novel Publication Date: December, 2011 Cover art by Jeannie Rusch ARe Bestselling Novel!

Amazon 5 Star Review 5.0 out of 5 stars Anything but bitter!!, By LadyTess "Ladytess" - See all my reviews This review is from: Bitter Black Kiss (Kindle Edition) Michelle Clay did an great job writing this book. Right from the beginning there was action and danger making it a page turner. This is not your normal Werewolf books either. Nicole had the problem every women wished they had, three men want to make her there mate. Brody is just a DJ at the club she works at but is that really all there is to him? Sean is the club owner and is so charming, but is he really? Aaron is her Ex and he wants her back or so he says! Things get really intense when Sean thinks Brody has won Nicole and decides to tell her all of Brody's little secrets. Later Nicole wakes up at Sean's house to over hear a conversation and finds out things with him are not what they seem either. The side characters added intensity to the relationship of everyone making the story more intriguing. The way Tony and Molly view of each other helps to show Sean and Nicole's true character and helps to bring them together. Whenever I thought the book was going to end it just on going and got more intense. There was no cliffhanger at the end either. I would love to read a second book with these characters. I enjoyed this book very much and would recommend it.  Next is Of a Darker Nature. *chills*
Of A Darker Nature by Michelle Clay Purchase e-Book Purchase Print Genre: Paranormal ISBN: 978-1-937254-53-7 (print) ISBN: 978-1-937254-54-4 (ebook) Length: Novel Publication Date: 6-1-2011 Cover art by Jeannie Ruesch With just one touch, Emily Cross can read the memories of the deceased. Working at a funeral home might not be the logical choice, but for Emily, it is a natural one. When she and her boss are attacked, the creatures she once thought were only folklore become all too real. Just as she’s about to be drained of life, the cadaver on the next table rises and fights them off. Feeling a connection to the man who saved her life, she makes it her mission to find him. As she delves deeper, she discovers a dark underworld full of vampires, magic and shape shifters. Marcus Dane doesn’t know how he ended up in a mortuary. As an Enforcer for the Mistress of the City, he has been following leads regarding a powerful witch who wants to exterminate his blood-clan. His fear that the witch has recruited some of his fellow Enforcers is confirmed and now it looks as though the witch will make her threats real. He counts himself lucky to escape the mortician, because someone in the mortuary business disposes of vampires who are unfortunate enough to cross his table. When it all comes down to it, Emily now has a vampire she’s romantically entangled with, a very angry Mistress who doesn’t like other people playing with her toys, and an incredibly powerful witch who realizes killing Emily is the gateway to what she wants. By the end, Emily will have to figure out who she can trust, who she has to align with even if she doesn’t trust them, and just who has the darkest nature of all. Amazon 4 Star Review You'll Be on the Edge of Your Seat, ReadAddiction - See all my reviews Michelle Clay doesn't waste anytime getting the action started. We have just met Emily Cross when all of the sudden she is in the middle of a situation that really shouldn't have anything to do with her. Unfortunately for her, because she finds herself in the situation, her secret is out. I loved Emily's reaction evertime she came in contact with Marcus. No matter what her initial plan was, she always ended up succumbing to the passion between them. She definitely added some great comic relief to the story. Emily has a great support team. They however have very strong initial opinions about her involvement with Marcus. Emily has to figure out who to trust, and whether she should act on her feelings for a certain vampire or not. Great addition to the Paranormal Romance Genre. Clay writes a story full of passion, suspense, and vividness that keep the reader on the edge of their seat! Biography Even as a child, Michelle Clay wasn't afraid of the things that went bump in the night. In fact, the thought of a world where werewolves roamed and Dracula reigned king may seem like an eldritch dream to most, but was exciting to Michelle. Instead of turning on a light for comfort, she reveled in the dark, imagining what was roaming the night and frightening those who didn't truly appreciate how interesting the supernatural really were. Nowadays, her visions continuously take shape as she brings life to the worlds she has imagined since childhood. The wild imaginings that often got Michelle out of, or more often into, trouble as a young girl have informed and enriched her storytelling as an adult, bringing a fresh new voice to the paranormal romance genre. Michelle currently writes from her Texas Hill Country residence, surrounded by colonies of bats, Native American spirits, haunted frontier forts and hidden ghost towns.
